Welcome to my Photography School Asia thread. I will endeavour to share some of my experiences of 20 years professional photography on this forum.
Also I will describe some of the more interesting assignment results of my students and show some of their work for discussion, both here and on a new section of my website, to be added soon.

Jacky Takes A Hit
I worked on photographing Crystal Methamphetamine abuse in Thailand for a number of years and managed to get really great access.
A National Geographic Documentary on the subject is to be aired in the US in October. I did the fixing/translating for that and they are also using my pictures to illustrate the "War On Drugs". The Thai police were given free license to clean the country of narcotics, ummm didn't work but an awful lot of people got killed.
The program isn't going to be shown world wide until the end of the year, so if anyone has seen it please reply and let me know how it was and how my pictures where used, thanks.

Dancing For Speed
Before the drugs crack down most the go go dancers in Bangkok ran on Ya Ba for
energy. Since the price of the drug has risen from 40 Baht to 350 baht the girls
save their abuse to special nights using it more recreationally

Massage Parlor
This is one of a series I did behind the scenes of a massage parlour.
The larger picture-
In early 2001 the Thaksin government began a "social order" campaign to clean up the country's risqué image. All nightlife venues were forced to close at 1am. Vigorous ID checks are enforced at all entertainment venues and random spot checks by police on roads are common. That with the ‘War On Drugs’ campaign changed the climate of the country from the decades-old reputation as a 24-hour party centre to one of restrictions and fear. But the sex industry for which Thailand’s reputation suffers the worse is little touched by the new regime. There are far too many powerful influences ‘doing very nice thankyou’ from the trade in sex for the government to dare to interfere. The story was written for The Guardian weekend magazine by Cathy Scott Clark and Adrian Levy read their story at-http://www.secrets-and-lies.co.uk/ and more of my pictures on this story- http://www.jonathantaylor.net
